Cam Newton home on the Plains

Cam Newton is back at Auburn, taking spring classes and working toward his degree. Cam Newton will not be doing any press on this matter, according to Auburn. This leaves us with a lot of time on our hands to imagine what we would get up to if thrust back into a college environment with all of Newton's accolades.

Are there any among you who would not abuse this situation just a tiny little bit? Here follows our abbreviated list of things we would try at Auburn if we happened to be a famous pro football player:

• Bring different combination of Auburn/Carolina apparel to campus every day. Festoon statue accordingly. Frequent refreshes for holidays/notable school events.

• Hire Jackie Chan to show up on campus in rubber Mission: Impossible mask of own face. At pre-appointed time, have Jackie Chan shed track suit and discard Cam Newton mask, revealing Jackie Chan. Hide. Film incident. Upload. Skip morning classes for a week to watch First Take debate Jackie Chan's surprising measurables as a member of the Carolina Panthers.

This list inspired by intrepid reader @thejuiceisgood, who raises the delightful specter of Newton haunting his own statue:

I wonder if in between classes Cam will hangout at, oh I don't know..., HIS STATUE? I would.
